Why is the kickstart lever broken off?

Before doing anything else, I'd figure out why that kickstart lever is broken off. Could be a badly seized engine.

Looks Like the 160? Dream?

Is the VIN number on the left side of the head or on the frame behind the left side of the motor? It looks like the 160 Honda Dream maybe a 1965? I think there is a few You tube videos to compare it to. But that VIN number will reveil the details. If you can shift it to the next gear up; and the clutch lever seems to work ok, see if the motor will turn when you push it fast and release the clutch. Shouldn't be a problem to restore that one. ;-)
